AFFIRMED.
Before NIEMEYER and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges, and PHILLIPS,
Senior Circuit Judge.
PER CURIAM:

Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C.
Sec. 1983 (1988) complaint. Our review of the record and the district court's
opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on
the reasoning of the district court.* Basham v. Duncil, No. 91-200-W (N.D.W.
Va. Dec. 2, 1993). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal
contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and
argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED.

We deny Basham's motion for appointment of counsel
